Chapter 53
When Yang Ermiao followed the people of the Xu family to invite someone, Diao Ruyue was very surprised, but she didn't expect that Jiang Xuehe really guessed correctly. Jiang Xuehe suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, although she didn't know what the relationship between the Xu family and the Gu family was, but since the Xu family specially sent someone to invite her in, Gu Siyan should have had a good chat inside?
As long as Gu Siyan chatted well in it, there was still hope for this marriage with the Xu family. The previous three years of the Gu family were really too hard, and Jiang Xuehe now has feelings for the three sisters and brothers of the Gu family, so she naturally hopes that their lives will be smoother in the future.
When Jiang Xuehe arrived, the Gu clan had already used those pastries and flower brews, and they were all very satisfied with them, and when they saw Jiang Xuehe, they couldn't help but show a trace of appreciation in their eyes at this moment. She was originally surprised that Gu Siyan's wife was just a country girl, how could she be so ingenious, but now that she looks like this style, where does she look like an ordinary country girl? To tell the truth, Gu Shi has always felt that there is no girl in the county who can compare to her little daughter in terms of beauty, but now that she has met Jiang Xuehe, she finally knows that there is still a better look.
However, Jiang Xuehe is more beautiful, and her youngest daughter is more delicate, which is more amorous.
"Just now Gu Xian's nephew has been mentioning Xue Niang since he entered the house, I thought what kind of girl should he be so that he can never forget it all the time, and now I finally understand when I see you. I'm afraid that I can't find a second one in the whole county, and I have a pair of skillful hands, who can not like it? After looking at it a few more times, Gu Shi felt that Jiang Xuehe looked familiar, so he asked, "Your mother's surname is Pei?" ”
Jiang Xuehe was stunned: "Madame knows my mother?" ”
Gu Shi heard that she did not deny it, and asked again: "You are the daughter of the Jiang Ershan family?" ”
"Exactly, Madame knows my father?"
Gu Shi sighed: "It's not very familiar, but you are really a good hand in flowers and plants, and all the big families in the county will consider your family as soon as they need flowers and plants, but there are unforeseen circumstances, it's a pity." ”
The Gu family and the Pei family are not very familiar, but she has always admired the Pei family, and now she sees that Jiang Xuehe and the Pei family are seven points similar, and she feels very cordial. It's just that when he thought of the reason why Jiang Xuehe married into the Gu family, the Gu family felt embarrassed again, thinking that Jiang Ershan should be regarded as the top of the Jiang family's village, and the Jiang family should have made a lot of money over the years, but as soon as the couple had an accident, the girl was sent by her grandmother to give people joy, which was too miserable.
Thinking of this, the Gu clan felt that their Xu family should recruit a few more martial artists, lest they have any accidents on the road. Their son still needs to have a good experience, the two daughters have been pampered and raised, and it has been extremely beautiful in the county these years, but if the couple goes, the people who were offended by her daughter before can't trample on them?
Jiang Xuehe was also a little gloomy when she mentioned her parents: "It's a pity that I'm a woman, and I can't support such a big business alone." ”
Gu originally wanted to say that although she couldn't support it alone, but now that she is married, doesn't she still have Gu Siyan's help? If there is a need, their Xu family can actually help. It's just that when she thought of how Jiang Xuehe married into the Gu family, she couldn't speak. Jiang Xuehe will be sent out by her grandmother in a hurry, but she is afraid that it will be related to these things, where is the old lady in the countryside willing to let a girl inherit the family business? If she catches up with the old lady who is particularly eccentric, maybe she will use the Jiang family's current property to supplement her other sons.
Thinking of this, Gu had no choice but to pat Jiang Xuehe's hand and said, "You are also very good now, you are smart and skillful, maybe you can also make something big?" ”
Jiang Xuehe said with a smile: "It's just that I can do some food, at most I can do some small business, I'm afraid I won't be able to do big things." ”
Gu shook his head and said: "I don't like to hear what you say, how many rich people don't start from small businesses now?" You've got the craft and the idea, and that's half the battle. I like your dim sum very much, and I want to ask how much more you can make, and I want to have a flower viewing banquet recently, and I'm worried about what kind of dim sum to prepare. ”
Jiang Xuehe didn't know if Gu Shi was saying this to comfort her or if she really wanted to buy it, but she still said truthfully: "This peach blossom cake is mixed with milk, but I have limited milk at home, so I can't make more." As for this pear blossom cake, it is the same, there is not much stock of raw materials at home. ”
Gu thought to himself, no wonder Jiang Xuehe said just now that she could only do small business, this was not enough to do that, and there was really no way to make the business bigger.
"It's not easy to get milk? Just tell me how much you need, I've got a way to get it for you. As for the pear blossom cake, I think it's also good, it tastes very refreshing, what ingredients are you missing, just tell me. ”
Jiang Xuehe said embarrassedly: "I can't rely on the Xu family everywhere, can I?" I'm thinking about how much I can do this year, and when I have experience in the coming year, I can naturally do better. I still have some private space in my hands, which is still enough to last until next year. ”
Gu Shi smiled: "You really think I am kind? Our Xu family has been a businessman for generations, how can there be a reason to let yourself suffer? I really want to hold a flower banquet, and I really need your pastry, don't you know that your pastry has become a decent place in the county this spring because of its novelty and small quantity. ”
"How can it be so exaggerated, Madame has lifted me up." Jiang Xuehe said modestly.
"What kind of lift is this, it was originally a rare thing, plus it is a new thing, and with the blessing of Mrs. County Order, it is naturally sought after by everyone. Tell me how much more you can make, I'll buy it all. Gu Shi thought for a while and said, "This peach blossom brew and pear blossom brew are also very good, and it is most suitable for me to entertain the ladies at that time." ”
Jiang Xuehe said with a smile: "The peach blossom cake can be made for more than three hundred pieces, and the pear blossom cake is more, and it can be made for another five hundred." It's a seasonal business that can only be done once a year. But it's different with flower brewing, this thing can be stored underground all the time, I can make more, but this container ......"
Gu Shi smiled: "If you have any thoughts, I like straightforward people the most, but I don't like to go around with people." ”
Jiang Xuehe lowered his head and said: "It's the younger generation who twisted, I was looking for a suitable porcelain kiln before, and I wanted to customize a batch of bottles, and the drawings were also brought, and now it's on Goro." It's a shame to say that we shouldn't have ...... if we haven't visited us for many years."
Originally, they were all talking in the hall, but Xu Zheng saw that the Gu clan and Jiang Xuehe could talk, so he called Gu Siyan to the study to talk alone.
"What's the big deal? Isn't it just to customize a batch of porcelain? When it comes to business, the matter of handing over the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other hand, just go through the normal process. Gu clapped her hand and smiled, "For the sake of acquaintances, I'll give you a cheaper, you can give me a few more bottles then." ”
Jiang Xuehe smiled: "This is natural, then Master Xu is there......"
Gu Shi smiled: "Since the drawings are on him, and you didn't plan to enter the door, then he will definitely mention it to the master." This is not a big deal in the first place, even if it is customized by people who don't know each other, as long as the money is paid, can we still disagree? ”
Jiang Xuehe nodded: "Madam said yes." ”
In fact, there was no need to think about this matter originally, didn't the two of them have a marriage contract? If the Xu family dislikes the Gu family's marriage, then this business will not be easy to discuss, not that it can't be done, but it will become a heart. Just look at the current situation as if they thought too much about it before? She saw that the Gu family was very enthusiastic about her, and Xu Zheng was also very kind to Gu Siyan, and the couple didn't look like powerful people.
When Gu Siyan proposed to say goodbye, Gu Shi pulled Jiang Xuehe aside and muttered a few words: "For the sake of being in love with you, let me remind you of something." ”
Jiang Xuehe hurriedly said: "Madame has something to say." ”
"In the past three years, although Gu Xian's nephew has been sick and some things are difficult to deal with, it shouldn't have been three years in a row without a response, who wants to have a hot face and a cold buttocks, right?" Seeing that Jiang Xuehe didn't understand, the Gu family said again, "Our master really wants to marry your Gu family, so in the past three years, everyone who has celebrated the New Year has sent people to send gifts to the past, but the Gu family not only did not return the gift, but also did not even reply to the letter, how can it make people not feel cold." ”
Jiang Xuehe sighed: "I don't know what happened in the past, but what the Qiao family got will never fall into the hands of their three brothers and sisters, I'm afraid they don't know." But now that our two families have separated, if Madame has anything to give to Ah Xian, why don't you send it directly to our East Courtyard? I know this is a bit abrupt, but the situation at home is complicated, and we don't have anything else to do. ”
Gu Shi also felt that what she said was not appropriate, but thinking that the Gu family was indeed such a bad situation, and Jiang Xuehe was still young, he didn't bother with him.
"Then I'll ask Steward Xu to send you back, so that you can recognize the door."
"We came in the family's ox cart, but we were afraid of ......"
Gu Shi smiled: "Don't think that our family is so expensive, it's just an ox cart, can he still not sit on it?" ”
Steward Xu did sit a few times, because he gave him the gifts to the Gu family at the beginning, but since the Gu family didn't respond much, the Gu family asked Steward Xu to send a small servant to send it casually. You haven't been there for almost two years, have you? Suddenly heard the Gu family's instructions Steward Xu was still a little surprised, he originally thought that the marriage between the Gu family and the Xu family would not be successful, but he didn't expect that the two parties still had the intention of continuing to communicate?
Steward Xu couldn't help but look at Gu Siyan a few more times, thinking that this young man is quite capable, he actually coaxed their old man and wife so quickly? In fact, their lord has never been a scheming person, and his attitude towards the Gu family has always been okay, that is, his wife, who obviously planned to find a way to make the marriage yellow, actually smiled at Gu Siyan and his wife today, and gave Jiang Xuehe a lot of meeting gifts.
It seems that he has to wait and see anymore, and he can't slack people for the time being.
